A Confusion of Women: Short Stories Joya Verde

Dr. Sigmund Freud once asked: 'What do women want? 'Having been a woman a number of years, I understand his perplexity. These insightful bits of "fiction" impart their truth as Shakespeare's lantern "doth the horned moon present", but less as metaphors. These agents of the feminine come from representative experience. They seek what they want even though they frequently haven't the slightest idea what it is. But they blunder toward it as toward the light with their love, their lies, their terrors, their courage and humor. They poke these portions of experience into the reader's expectations with the plea to find in their tracks, some direction ... if not for them, for you, the reader. Then, they may rest.
